Did Rumsfeld or Congress Take Over FedEx?

I ask because I notice that the reason my overnight package did not arrive today is that someone at FedEx, in their wisdom, decided the best route between a package sent from New York to Vermont is via Newark, NJ and Memphis, TN. It then took more than a day to make it back up to East Boston to begin its three hour drive over.

Now, if history repeats itself, the package will sit in Williston, located on the other side of Boston from me, until sometime next week. Then they may send it over to St. Johnsbury, slightly closer to me than to East Boston, to have them drive an hour to deliver it.

I'm glad I paid all that extra for next day.
